DR. EKANSHAA AGNIHOTRI is a professional illusionist. Three years ago, a sound tore her life apart, leaving her haunted by a ghost she still writes to. Now, she wears her ghost's calm confidence like armor, burying her profound grief beneath a façade of clumsy cheer and career ambition. She craves exhaustion, seeking high-risk patients who can drown out the silence of her trauma.
Her wish is granted in REYAANSH RONAV.
A billionaire financier consumed by rage and anxiety, Reyaansh is the personification of ruin. Systematically betrayed by love and pushed to the brink of collapse, he is desperate to regain control and equally desperate to destroy anyone who tries to pry open his pain. He sees Ekanshaa, his new psychiatrist, as merely another paid obstacle to tear down.
She is the Ice that guards an unhealed wound. He is the Storm that threatens to shatter the world around him.
Thrown together in an unethical, high-stakes arrangement, their sessions become a brutal war of wills. Ekanshaa must find order in Reyaansh's chaos to save her career and her sanity, but his volatile pain threatens to break her composure, forcing her to confront the tragic life she left behind.
The question isn't whether she can heal him. The question is which will break first: the wall of calm she built in the memory of the past, or the ruinous rage of the man who represents her terrifying future.

Reyansh×Aarini Some accidents aren't just fate-they're a storm written in destiny. When fiery, stubborn Aarini Mehta crashes-quite literally-into Reyansh Oberoi's perfectly calculated life, she doesn't expect her world to spiral into chaos. He's the last person she wants to be tangled with: arrogant, insufferable, and hiding a darkness behind those unreadable eyes. She calls him "Ostrich" for his overconfident head-in-the-clouds attitude. He calls her "Troublemaker","wildcat"-because that's what she brings into his life. He was chaos in a crisp suit. She was fire wrapped in silence. Their story was never meant to be gentle. From the moment their eyes locked, it was war. He was arrogant. Annoying. Unbearably handsome. She was fiery. Stubborn. A walking headache. They clashed like thunder-every encounter more explosive than the last. They argue like it's a sport. They fight like they breathe. And yet, something burns beneath every sarcastic word, every stolen glance. Reyansh is the kind of man who hides danger beneath charm, secrets beneath his smirk-and obsession behind his eyes. And somewhere between their heated arguments and forced encounters, he begins to crave her in ways even he doesn't understand. Then one promise changes everything. One deal that tilts the axis of her world. She agrees to give in to one demand. But Reyansh Oberoi doesn't play fair. And when he wants something-he takes it. Even if it means forcing her into his world, his rules... his arms. But the scariest part? She's starting to feel the same. But Aarini has secrets too. Dark ones. Deep ones. And the more Reyansh uncovers, the more dangerous his love becomes. He's possessive. Dangerously patient. "Accidentally Yours" is a slow-burn dark romance where enemies turn to something more twisted, more tangled-and far more addictive. With hidden pasts, sizzling tension, and a love that was never soft, this story isn't about falling. It's about crashing. Start Date :- 29/06/202

The Silent Screams
"I want a divorce, Evyavaan." "What did you say?" he growled. "I want you to divorce me, Evyavaan," she repeated, though her resolve faltered. "I dare you," he said through gritted teeth. "Say that again." "There is no divorce happening, darling." he said, eyes raging. "You think you get to decide this alone?" He seethed. "From the very first day, I have been nothing but patient with you. But it seems like you mistook my patience for weakness." Anvika Khanna, the only daughter of the Khanna family, had everything. Protected by three overprotective brothers, her life was nothing short of a fairytale. She was living her dream until a single incident flipped her entire world upside down. Writing became her escape. Under a pen name, away from her family name and legacy, she created a different world. And then came the marriage. A marriage she used to escape her reality, from the eys on her family, to Evyavaan Malhotra. Evyavaan Malhotra, India's leading business tycoon, carries his family legacy effortlessly. Once the sunshine eldest of the Malhotra family, he is now dominant, intense, and dangerously possessive. He believes that once something is his, letting go is not an option. A marriage bound by obligation and family pressure ties him to her. But now, he is not ready to let her go, when all she wants is to end this marriage. He would burn the world before letting Anvika disappear from his life. What begins as obligation turns into obsession. What was orchestrated as an escape starts feeling like home. And the screams she never voiced begin to echo in ways neither of them expected.
